Photobiomodulation

Let's Address Some Basic MRM My Pet Laser Rules

Photobiomodulation is an amazing tool that pushes the body to heal itself at an accelerated rate. MRM Super Pulsed Technology has proven to be an effective and efficient device to provide improved healing and pain relief. Although therapy with light has improved greatly with this third generation instrument, It it important to remember that no two patients or injuries are the same and that PBMT is unlikely to become the exact science we wish it could. Here are some basic rules to remember while using your MRM My Pet Laser:

• Performing the unwind protocol prior to any treatment is always advantageous. The patient will be more relaxed and accepting and treatments become something to look forward to.
• Use UNDER 500Hz for stimulatory needs like healing and reproducing new cells (settings # 1 and  #2 with a My Pet Laser)
• Use OVER 500Hz for inhibiting pain, reducing swelling and nerve damage (setting # 3), where no reproduction of new cells is required.
• Never use both a stimulatory and an inhibitory treatment in the same area at the same time. These treatments must be 5 inches or 5 hours apart to avoid confusing cells and cancelling each other out.
• The Average treatment time for a stimulatory setting with a My Pet Laser is 40-45 seconds per spot. You need to treat the whole area, above it, below it, and on it. If left in place too long, no damage will be caused, but any healing could cease and only pain relief and reduction in swelling could occur.. A good rule of thumb for scanning is 1 square cm per 2 seconds.
• Accute conditions can be treated twice a day to apply a "loading dose" and should be reduced over time, similar to a predinisone reduction.
• Chronic conditions are better treated once daily and again reduced over time, allowing for a "light vacation" ;  5 days on, 2 days off is an easy rule to follow, allowing the body to catch up, rest and kick-start again.
